Affectionate beyond ninety thousand miles

The exhibition hall on the first floor seemed a bit empty after all the paintings on the walls were removed.

Gao Gaoyang's sudden confession even gave the illusion of an echo in the silent space, lightly but forcefully vibrating Wen Nanning's eardrums, causing her hands to stop as she was tidying up, a little astonished.

She originally turned her back to him, but after hearing his words, she slowly stood up and turned around with a surprised expression.

Gao Yang Qingjun's face was stained with a thin blush, he tightened his hands hanging by his side, closed his eyes, and blurted out, "Nan Ning, actually I liked you the first time I saw you, I know you have a man Friends, I have no other intentions, just... just want to express my thoughts."

He called her by her name directly. In fact, he had wanted to say that for a long time, and finally said it today.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he said the words from the bottom of his heart, as if the boulder in his heart had finally been removed, and his whole body seemed relaxed.

But being stared at by Wen Nanning's beautiful eyes, he still felt a little nervous.

Wen Nanning came back to her senses, and then frowned. She didn't feel uncomfortable, but surprised.

She is three years older than Gao Yang.

He has always been his brother.

I also feel that I have not given him any wrong information.

What's more, she was still with Ji Yanxi before.

So when she heard this unexpected confession, she couldn't help feeling a little absurd.

But after thinking about it, he felt that he might not see each other in the future, so he mustered up the courage to speak up.

The young man is impulsive and straightforward, and this courage moved her.

Although unable to reciprocate his feelings, she respects his feelings.

Wen Nanning pursed her lips, and said in a soft voice, "Yu Yang, thank you for your love and your hard work during this time. But I have always regarded you as my younger brother. If you want, we can also be in the future. friend."

Gao Yang Mingliang's eyes dimmed in an instant. Although it was the result he had known for a long time, but after hearing her say this with his own ears, deep disappointment still couldn't be avoided in his heart.

He knew that he was no match for that man in terms of current status and ability, so even if he was disappointed, he could only accept it.

He accepted this reality desolately, instead of stalking, he changed the subject, "After closing the studio, what are your plans for the future?"

Seeing that he didn't continue, Wen Nanning breathed a sigh of relief, and her expression relaxed,
"I don't have any plans for the time being. I'll finish dealing with these paintings first, and then I have to deal with some private matters. I may return to Shencheng for a while."

"Back to Shencheng?"

Wen Nanning nodded, "Well, my family is there."

"Then..." In fact, he wanted to ask, what about your boyfriend?
But he didn't feel comfortable asking directly, so he had to choose another question to ask, "Then will you return to Beicheng in the future?"

Wen Nanning smiled, "Probably."

Gao Gao Yang suddenly didn't know what to say.

He promptly accepted the topic of confession, because he was afraid that the two of them would continue to be embarrassed and become strangers when they met in the future, but the words had already been spoken, which inevitably caused awkwardness between the two of them.

He glanced at the paintings against the wall, "Are you going to move all the paintings on the second floor down? Let me help."

Wen Nanning wanted to refuse, but when she saw that he was already walking towards the stairs, she couldn't speak anymore.

I thought it would be good to have his help, so that it could end quickly.

It was almost noon when the two finished moving the paintings, Wen Nanning invited him to have a meal together to express his gratitude.

Gao Yang ate this meal completely without taste.

Thinking that this might be the last supper, he peeked at her expression from time to time while eating.

However, she was eating quietly and earnestly, without even looking at him.

After lunch soon, Wen Nanning was going to say goodbye to him, even though he acted slowly and refused to leave, he had to leave in the end.

Gao Gao Yang wanted to see her off, but she insisted on taking a taxi by herself.

When watching her get into the car and go away, Gao Yang had a feeling that maybe he would not see her for a long time.

After she left, he also returned to his car and left the studio where he had worked for three months.

Wen Nanning went directly to the cafe she had made an appointment with Shen Xinrong, sent her an address message, and then chose a seat by the window to sit down and wait.

In fact, she was already mentally prepared that she might miss the appointment today.

So the mood of waiting is also very relaxed, just enjoy this rare time quietly by yourself.

It was already 02:30, half an hour past the agreed time, and Shen Xinrong still didn't show up.

Wen Nanning was not in a hurry, she was still waiting.

At this moment, Lu Yufeng's phone call came in.

She picked it up, "Boss Lu."

Na Duan said, "Call me by my name in the future, you are not my subordinate, and it's not like you haven't called me before."

In fact, Wen Nanning still thought it would be easier to call Mr. Lu, and he also felt respected.

But he really has nothing to say to her, so there's no need to struggle with a title for too long.

She immediately changed her mouth, "Yufeng."

The voice was soft, and the name came out of her mouth with a bit of tenderness.

Lu Yufeng smiled and said, "My mother told me to invite you. Next Friday is the [-]th anniversary of her and my father's marriage. She hopes you can come."

Wen Nanning was stunned for a moment, but quickly agreed, "Okay, please tell auntie that I will go."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yufeng hung up the phone.

Wen Nanning stared at the phone for a while, when suddenly the light in front of her eyes was blocked by a shadow, she raised her head, and saw Shen Xinrong standing in front of her with a half-smile.

Wen Nanning immediately put away her phone and stood up, "Miss Shen."

Shen Xinrong glanced at her and sat down.

Wen Nanning also sat down.

"Are you looking for me?"

Shen Xinrong put down her bag, her posture was very high.

In her eyes, Wen Nanning is nothing without Ji Yanxi.

Now that Ji Yanxi's choice is seen by the whole Beicheng, Wen Nanning is no longer a thorn in her side, but a poor wretch who is about to be abandoned after using it for three months.

Shen Xinrong's heart was secretly refreshed.

Originally, she didn't want to come to see her, but when she thought of her current pitiful situation, which was worse than her own before, she couldn't help but want to see a good show.

Wen Nanning ordered her a cup of coffee, and then said in silence for a while, "I want to apologize for the harm I caused you before."

Shen Xinrong raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Oh? What did you do? You want to apologize to me?"

"Although I didn't do anything, just because my appearance made your situation awkward, I thought it was nothing at the time, but now I feel it myself. This feeling is really bad. So I think about it before and think I have to apologize to you before asking you out."

Wen Nanning said truthfully.

With a very low posture and a very sincere voice, even a little aggrieved, Shen Xinrong felt extremely refreshed.

She didn't sympathize with Wen Nanning, and felt that it was retribution for her to have today.

But maybe it's because they now have a common "enemy", so Shen Xinrong's arrogant arrogance has subsided a little without knowing it.

She accepted her apology.

Shen Xinrong took a sip of coffee, raised her eyebrows and asked, "How are you and Ji Yanxi doing now?"

"we broke up."

"Cough, cough" Shen Xinrong choked unexpectedly.

After finally slowing down, she asked in a low voice, "What did you say?"
